[Video/Action]

[weaponsofwords]

[The bookman has been keeping his mouth shut on the communicators lately. It's a strange trick for him, but he's had things on his mind. Which usually ends poorly for someone. But between trying to drum up something concrete for his slow-burning plan of mass revolt and then putting together the pieces of the future back home he's learned from Allen

[Perma Action]

[cursemarked]

[It really isn't hard getting Allen to spend time with Lavi. He saw the video where Lavi had asked him for company and headed out, not even bothering to respond. He did tuck his watch into his pants pocket, however.

Once he arrives t the park, he stops near a tree and frowns as his eyes scan for the familiar figure of a loud obnoxious redhead swinging around a giant hammer.]

I thought he was in the park... It looks like I might have to contact him with the watch after all.

[weaponsofwords]

[Oh Lavi is in the park. But being who he is, he has a tendency not to be where expected.

He is, however, quite nearby. And all at once the redhead is popping out from behind a tree, just behind Allen, fairly soundlessly. He leans in close, to whisper, cheerfully to Allen's ear.] Looking for me?

[cursemarked]

[He bristles first, almost visibly as a strangled screech pushes past his vocal chords. The watch he'd been about to flip open drops to the ground as he whirls around to fit the redhead with an aggravated, but shocked none the less glare]

Lavi.

[weaponsofwords]

[Lavi blinks at that reaction, but he grins anyway.] Yup! Here I am. [He can't help but laugh a little.] Did I startle you? I wasn't sure if you'd show, since I didn't hear from you.

[cursemarked]

[you scared him, you doofus.] ...I don't know how you can keep doing that. [popping up out of nowhere. Though he laughs sheepishly.]

Sorry, I figured I could find you pretty quickly. Have you been practicing? [A pause.] You mentioned you wanted to talk to me?

[weaponsofwords]

[Oops.] Doing what? [He's either playing innocent or is. He grins though.]

No worries. You found me all right. [A little grin.] Yeah, a thing or two. C'mon. Let's find somewhere shady to sit down.

[cursemarked]

[ ^ This is the face he is making at you, Lavi. Though the expression dissolves a moment later when the conversation shifts. All is how it should be when interacting with the bookman.

He heads back over to a thicket of trees, and more or less plops himself down at their base, leaving room for Lavi to join him.]

Ugh, I don't remember it ever being this hot here before.

[weaponsofwords]

Yeah. Feels like that doesn't it? [Lavi drops himself to a seat beside Allen, a mess of lanky limbs that manage to sprawl quite a bit as he settles in. He glances up through the thick green leaves at the few breaks of sun that make it through.]

When you went home, did you remember this place, while you were there?

[cursemarked]

[He grins a bit as Lavi sprawls himself down next to him. He settles back against one of the trees. The question makes him frown as he tries to remember.]

At first... I remembered everything. But as time went on... It just kind of disappeared. I felt like I was missing something, but I couldn't put my finger on it.

[He shrugs a bit. It was probably best, no sense in making things awkward back home, right?]

[weaponsofwords]

[Lavi hums thoughtfully at that.] Like a dream then?

[And actually, he has a question on that.] And no one was missing? That was here? [A pause.] ...did I remember this place? Or Lenalee or Yuu?

[cursemarked]

Mm... I thinkt hat's probably the best way to describe it.

[At the next part, he frowns.] No one was missing. And no. You didn't. Lenalee and Kanda were the same. It was like no one had been here.

[weaponsofwords]

[Lavi frowns at that, leaning back against the tree.] What is this place, Allen?

[It's a rhetorical question, really, and Lavi glances over to him with a smile.] Heh. Maybe that's enough talking shop, yeah?

[cursemarked]

[He laughs. It's a good question. At the second part, he's a bit more sheepish.] Mm. We seem to do that a lot lately. I guess there's just a lot to talk about.

[He shrugs his shoulders, offering a softer more genuine smile in Lavi's direction.]

[weaponsofwords]

[Lavi laughs too.] There always is, I think. We're busy people. Even int his place...

[He pauses here and reaches a hand over towards Allen's.] Maybe we could talk about something else though.

[cursemarked]

[He doesn't miss that hand, and moves his to meet the action, his fingers lacing loosely with the redhead's own. Glancing over at Lavi, his lips curl up slightly.]

Mm. I guess we probably should... [Oh god how to talk about feelings.]

[weaponsofwords]

[Lavi's fingers curl around Allen's in return, and he turns to fix a grin on him.]

So where are we? Wherever it is, I like it. [A pause.] This. You.
